I switched to lenovo+linux+regolith for daily use a long time ago after my mid-2010 macbook pro started having problems. I love the productivity gain from using a tiling window manager now, and can't imagine using anything else.
In terms of finder/preview, I've since moved to using vifm (tui) configured with zathura(pdf/djvu), calibre(epub), sxiv(images), mpv(videos). This works very well with the tiling window manager.
Notable (https://notable.app/ https://notable.app/) works very well as a notes app and you can also sync it with your mobile and use Noteless (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.redsolver.noteless https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.redsolver....) on android with the synced notable folder
Kitty terminal (https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/ https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/) is great as a terminal, fast, and can also display images.
- amatecha 4y agoAw sweet, Regolith is using i3, right? I've been using i3 for about a year now and just love it. So fast/effortless and completely out of the way. A simple i3bar for a bit of status stuff and it's like ... ahh, finally, that's all I ever wanted. :)
- msravi 4y agoYes! Just that regolith has all the sane defaults and i3bar and rofi bundled in, and serves as a good starting point if you haven't used i3 before.
